Basic Sharpening Kit
A cost effective and yet highly efficient sharpening kit. The kit uses high quality abrasive films which are self adhesive and refillable providing a great solution for keeping tools sharp on a budget. 

You can sharpen all manner of edge tools, from carving knives, kitchen knives, axes, planes, chisels you name it. For curved tools such as hook knives and gouges, checkout my hook knife sharpening kit

The Basic Sharpening kit provides a similar sharpening experience to diamond stones at a fraction of the cost of buying a full set. It is a perfect kit to start sharpening with or fill in the gaps of your existing setup  

From Dull & Damaged to Razor Sharp
You can take a dull knife with an imperfect edge to a razor sharp carving tool with this set. Having a full set of blocks incentivizes sharpening as all the grits are within arms reach at all times. Start at 360 grit for blunt edges and work up to a razor sharp edge and strop with fine stropping compound 

The abrasives cut metal very well, they are made from durable and uniform Aluminium Oxide resin-bonded abrasive film which stand up to many cycles of rigorous sharpening and can simply be lubricated with water

Refills
Once the abrasives wear out they peel off and can be refilled. I find I work through the coarser grits quicker and therefore the coarse 3 refill pack is particularly handy

The kit contains detailed step by step instructions on sharpening and how to get the most from your kit
